ELL — Here  we  are! 
"Me  and  the  Dog." 
This  is  the  latest  book 
from  the  Anderson  Print 
Shop.  Hope  you  will  like 
it — that  it  will  add  one 
more  smile  to  your  day — and  incidentally  give 
you  an  inkling  of  the  classy  work  we  do  here. 
If  you  want  additional  copies  for  your 
friends  or  your  enemies,  the  price  will  be  four 
bits.  We  think  it  is  worth  that  much — don't 
you?  Besides,  we  need  the  fifty  cents  to  "buy 
the  poor  dog  a  bone." 

Prudy's  wrinkles  are  not  all  in  his  face,  you 
know.  There  are  a  lot  in  his  bread  basket, 
and  he  can  live  up  to  his  reputation  lots  easier 
if  they  are  smoothed  out  by  an  occasional 
offering.  A  full  stomach  is  first  aid  to  con- 
stancy even  in  a  dog. 

A  few  wrinkle  eliminator  orders  will  be 
appreciated. 

Will  you  kindly  let  me  know  what  you  think 
of  this  book. 

Yours  truly, 

JO  ANDERSON, 

416  J  Street,  Sacramento,  California.
